Bengaluru: The BJP on Tuesday hailed the Karnataka High Court’s verdict upholding the governor’s prosecution nod against Congress leader and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in MUDA scam case, saying It welcomed the court’s decision.
Accusing the CM Siddaramaiah of grabbing the land meant for poor, BJP demanded his immediate resignation from the top pots.
In a post of X, the BJP wrote, “It is welcome that the High Court has given permission for the prosecution against the CM @siddaramaiah who had illegally grabbed the Dalits’ land and made the sites that should have belonged to the poor in his name.”
The saffron party also accused the grand-old party to stooping to “low-level politics to cover up their universe of corruption.”
“Congress leaders resorted to low-level politics over dignified governors to cover up their universe of corruption. But the court upheld the Governor’s move and reiterated that corruption has no place in India,” Karnataka BJP tweeted in Kannada.
“If Siddaramaiah has any respect for the law of this land, for the constitution, for the court, he should not continue his corruption and bow down to the court’s decision and resign from the post of CM immediately,” the tweet further read.
Reacting to Court verdict, state BJP President BY Vijayendra said “BJP has been relentlessly fighting against the corrupt Congress government.” He criticised the Congress for accusing the BJP of hatching a political conspiracy in the state.
